Round 1: Dallas Turner
Round 3: Michael Pratt
Round 4-7: DL, CB and OL

Thoughts?

Gonna have to trade up most likely (but you never know)
I like Pratt in Round 3 (don't like him earlier then that, just not sure we found our long term QB in him) but he has a chance and we aren't using a high pick to take a shot at least. I will trust Payton/Paton on this one if we do take him Rd 3. I do like him just wouldn't take him any earlier and I hate using top 3 picks on a QB unless they turn out to be our future, which I know there is only one way to find out but.. I do think he has value in rd 3.
Depends on who Rd 4-7 is.

In the 3rd round I'd take Spencer Rattler (for Sean Payton) before I made a Pratt fall.

If we don't take McCarthy/Nix......love taking Rattler in the 3rd.

Puke. I don't trust his football IQ, and his mechanics go to shit when he feels pressure (real or not).

There's about a half dozen guys I'd rather have than Rattler.

Yeah with so few picks, the Broncos evaluation staff needs to hit on all their selections. Maybe they'll find a way to add another pick somewhere. Also not sure if Dulcich is going to be our TE solution, so probably need to look to the draft for that as well.

I know there are people comparing Rattler's upside to Mahomes but I just haven't liked anything I have seen in 5 years out of Rattler. He has been a disaster to me. Leadership skills suck too.

I think they only see the size and light skin. ;)

I don't compare him to Mahomes - I think he compares to Drew Brees in his QB game. I think Rattler gets a bad rap as a QB - as a person - I'd have to find a way to find out if he is a dick or not.

Never said you did.

I don't see it in Rattler. I have never had an impressive moment when watching Rattler. Could be wrong, maybe he has something special bottled up but I haven't seen anything to make me think he has it.

Chop Robinson ran a 4.48. Pretty insane time for a man of his size and position. Impressive.

I'd definitely trade back a bit and grab him. His other drills looked good too.
